HISTORY OF LOG CONSTRUCTION

Here is our harsh Canadian climate temperature can sometimes drop below -40C. Our ancestors soon discovered that Canadian timber especially white pine, offered comfort and longevity to their homes. Not surprising that even today we can still see these buildings throughout our countryside. Some of these homes date back hundreds of years, many of which withstood the test of time without any chemical protection.

Bo-Camp Log Homes is located north of Trois-Rivières, surrounded by immense softwood forests. World renowned for its high quality timber and excellent forest management, this area offers an economic and accessible supply of white pine, which we transform into 6``X 6``or 6`` X 8`` square logs and siding. We have chosen white pine for our construction not only for the ease of its transformation but for its stability and superior insulation characteristics. The thermal mass of its highly cellular structure enables the wood to absorb and retain heat. Therefore allowing you to keep warm and snug in winter and nice and cool during those hot summer days. These are just a few reason why the Bo-Camp concept of log structures is well appreciated by our customers year after year.
